The Danish Hydrogen Backbone (DHB) project is a comprehensive effort to establish a hydrogen infra-structure in Denmark, connecting planned large-scale hydrogen production in Denmark, produced from renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, with the German and European hydrogen markets. The project is part of the European hydrogen infrastructure and significantly contributes to the EU's goals of climate neutrality and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The full backbone is planned to extend all the way from underground storage in the northern part of Denmark (Lille Torup) to the German border (Frøslev), but a political decision has been made to initially focus on building the southern part of the system (Danish Hydrogen Pipeline – Phase 1), and thereby having this part operational by the end of 2030. The purpose of the SQS is to establish a pool of qualified Suppliers that may be invited to participate in procurements for the supply of valves required for the DHB. The SQS covers two valve qualification categories: Mainline & Large Station Ball Valves, including mainline, pipeline, large station, manual piping and process ball valves in manual and actuated configurations; and Control Valves, including General Control Valves and Critical / Severe-Service Control Valves.. Applicants may apply for one or both categories. Final quantities, sizes, pressure classes, duties and technical requirements will be specified in the individual tender documents. Has the economic operator itself or any person who is a member of its administrative, management or supervisory body or has powers of representation, decision or control therein been the subject of a conviction by final judgment for fraud, by a conviction rendered at the most five years ago or in which an exclusion period set out directly in the conviction continues to be applicable? Within the meaning of Article 1 of the Convention on the protection of the European Communities' financial interests (OJ C 316, 27.11.1995, p. 48). For Danish applicants/tenderers the documentation is entailed in the “Serviceattest” which can be acquired from the Danish Business Authority. The time frame from request of a Serviceattest until receipt is usually two weeks. For foreign applicants/tenderers it is the experience of the Contracting Authority that the time frame for receipt of this documentation varies within the individual member states. As a result, The Contracting Authority strongly advises foreign applicants/tenderers to obtain this documentation as early as possible. Preferably the documentation should be ready and available already in connection with the prequalification. The EU Commission has launched e-CERTIS, a free, on-line source of information to help companies and contracting authorities to deal with different forms of documentary evidence required when tendering for public contracts. Information regarding relevant certificates can be obtained from: https://ec.europa.eu/tools/ecertis/#/search The applicant must submit one completed ESPD pr. category to apply for the Qualifications system. The ESPD for this tender can be found via Comdia. The ESPD must be completed in Comdia and submitted via “My Response”, cf. link in section I.1 in this notification. Applications not submitted via Comdia will not be accepted. A guide to the ESPD can be found on the webpage of the Competition and Consumer Authority (www.KFST.dk) in Danish (the Contracting Authority is not responsible for the content of the guide). The Contracting Authority reserves the right to request the applicant to supplement, specify or complete the information submitted. An applicant participating on its own, but relying on the capacities of one or more other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a subcontractor), must ensure that the application includes the applicants own ESPD together with a separate ESPD from each of the entities it relies on with a completed part II: “Information concerning the economic operator” and part III: “Exclusion grounds” of the ESPD as well as the relevant information regarding part IV: “Selection criteria” and part V: “Reduction of the number of qualified candidates”. The ESPD from each of the entities should be duly filled and signed by the entities concerned. Further where an applicant wants to rely on the capacities of other entities, it shall prove to the contracting authority that it will have at its disposal the resources necessary, for example, by producing a commitment by those entities to that effect, which must be submitted as part of the final documentation. Where groups of economic operators, including temporary associations, participate together in the procurement procedure, a complete separate ESPD for each of the participating eco-nomic operators must be submitted. Further the final documentation must include a signed declaration by all parties of the group of economic operators (joint venture, consortium or other) stating that all economic operators assume joint and several liabilities towards the Contracting Authority for the performance of the contract as a whole.
